# # How to Decide the Right Market Price for Dehydrated Vegetables & Fruits?

Have you ever wondered **how dehydrated onion powder is sold in the market at ₹100/kg—or sometimes even lower?**
Let’s break this down with simple logic.

# # # The Cost Reality Check

* Average fresh onion market price: **₹7/kg**
* Dehydration conversion ratio: **1:10**
👉 This means **10 kg fresh onion = 1 kg dried onion**

So, **raw material cost alone becomes ₹70/kg**.

Now add the **conversion cost**:

* Even with the most efficient hi-tech dehydration machines, **minimum processing cost** (power, labor, maintenance, wastage, packaging, compliance) is **₹70–100/kg**.

👉 **Total realistic cost: ₹140–170 per kg**

# # # Then the Big Question ❓

**How can anyone sell dehydrated onion powder at 40–50% of this cost?**
Think about it.

# # # The Hidden Truth Behind “Cheap” Dehydrated Products

In the industry, dehydrated vegetables are often assumed to be made from **2nd-grade or rejected raw material** to cut costs.
While this may reduce the price, it **seriously compromises**:

* Taste
* Color
* Nutritional value
* Shelf stability
* Food safety

Low input quality always reflects in the final product—no matter how good the machinery is.

# # # Our Approach at Patekar Agro

✔ We use **best-quality raw materials**
✔ Every batch goes through **rigorous quality checks**

When pricing seems “too good to be true,” it usually is.
In dehydrated foods, **quality has a cost—and value has a purpose**.

we compete on **trust, transparency, and quality**.
